The January transfer window is almost over - meaning that clubs are running out of time to reload their squads ahead of the second half of the season.

For Leeds it's not been the busiest-ever window, but the club have brought in some new faces - some for now, some for the future - yet the issue of a new striker looms large over deadline day.

The club are in talks to sign Carpi striker Jerry Mbakogu, but any deal would not happen until the summer, which has caused some fans to question the club's ambition this month, as United continue to preach value.

But when does the window slam shut? And what can we expect to happen? Here's all you need to know...

When does the transfer window shut?

The window closes at 11pm on Wednesday January 31st.

With seven Premier League games taking place that evening, it may mean we don't see the usual flurry of last-minute deals as the main movers and shakers could simply have too much on their plate that evening.

What about the rest of Europe?

Most of the major European leagues - including the top flights in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Turkey and the Netherlands - also end their transfer window on January 31.

The window in Portugal closes on February 2, Chinese clubs have until February 28 and the Russian window closes on February 22.

So keep your eyes peeled for some post-deadline day drama there.

Who have Leeds United already signed?

Leeds have been fairly busy this month, with no less than eight new players being snapped up.

However, it is likely that only two - Laurent De Bock and Adam Forshaw - will play any real part in the first-team this season, with Yosuke Ideguchi being loaned out to Cultural Leonesa and the remaining new additions being put into the Under-23 team.

Mateusz Klich has joined FC Utrecht on loan for the rest of the season, while loanee Cameron Borthwick-Jackson has been sent back to parent club Manchester United early with his tail between his legs following an abysmal spell at Elland Road.
